Context: Why This Landshare Model Matters
🔍 A History of Land & Power
🔁 Reversing the System, Together
🔁 Reversing the System, Together
For most of U.S. history, land ownership has meant power—the power to vote, to live safely, to build wealth, and to shape your community.
- In early America, only landowners could vote.
- Later, policies like redlining and forced removals deliberately denied land access to Black, Indigenous, and poor communities.
- Even now, unhoused people are criminalized simply for existing, while housing insecurity strips millions of their dignity, safety, and political voice.
Meanwhile, land is being hoarded—by billionaires, corporations, and absentee investors—while everyday people struggle to survive.
“When I had nowhere to go, this land gave me a place to be legal — even for just two weeks. I registered to vote again. I felt like I mattered.”

Land is more than dirt. It’s survival. It’s legality. It’s belonging.
With land, you have proof you exist. And no one should need a six-figure mortgage or a trust fund to access that.
That’s why we’re sharing it.

🔁 Reversing the System, Together
The Land-Share Project is a community-powered reversal of the systems that have long tied land ownership to privilege, and denied it to those who need it most.
Instead of waiting for permission or hoping for justice, we’re taking action:
- 🛠️ Buying land together, using small contributions from hundreds (or even thousands) of everyday people
- 📜 Granting legal land stakes to each contributor through our cooperative LLC structure
- 🏕️ Dedicating that land to sheltering unhoused individuals and resisting systems of exclusion, criminalization, and dispossession
🌱 What You Gain by Contributing
When you join the Land-Share Project, you receive:
✅ A real, documented stake in the land — not just a symbolic donation, but a legal use right recorded in our operating agreement
✅ A direct role in protecting vulnerable people, by helping provide legal land for emergency stays
✅ A tool for future resilience — if land ownership ever becomes a requirement for voting, ID, or other legal protections again, you’ll already have a stake
This is land justice in action.
We’re reclaiming land not for profit, but for protection.
Not for speculation, but for survival.
And we’re doing it together.
Context: Why This Landshare Model Matters
🛠️ Not a Traditional HOA. Not a Real Estate Scheme.
🛑 This Is Not a Gated Community.
It’s a Land Cooperative Grounded in Solidarity.
We’re not here to flip real estate.
We’re not building luxury getaways.
We’re building legal protection, housing justice, and mutual aid—square foot by square foot.
🧱 Shared Ownership
Everyone who contributes owns a real, legal stake in the land — formally recorded through our cooperative LLC. Each land-share member is granted 1 square foot of protected use rights.
🤝 Shared Mission
This land is not for profit.
It’s not about control.
It’s about providing legal, safe shelter for people in crisis. Full stop.
🔄 Shared Purpose
All income beyond basic upkeep goes directly to Unity Harbour and our low-cost campground initiative, funding:
- Emergency stays
- Transitional housing
- Legal support
- Mutual aid infrastructure for those most excluded by traditional systems
🌍 A Living Protest
This is more than land.
It’s a portable, people-powered land trust — designed to be replicated, scaled, and resilient against the very systems trying to shut us out.
This isn’t just property. It’s protection. It’s protest.
When you join the land-share, you’re not just gaining access — you’re joining a movement of everyday people refusing to be erased.
We’re building our own safety net — one square foot at a time.
🌱 What You Get When You Join the Land-Share
🧾 A Legal Land Claim
Your $50–$100 contribution secures a legally documented ownership interest (typically 1 square foot) in a shared 5-acre parcel held through SkyStone Vale LLC.
This interest is recorded through our Operating Agreement and internal registry—offering you proof of land ownership and a strategic safeguard in times of legal or political instability.
🏕️ A Safe Place to Land if You Lose Everything
The parcel includes a designated 2-week emergency camping zone (Site X) reserved for unhoused individuals in crisis.
Under Costilla County Ordinance 2015-06, you can camp for up to 14 days in any 3-month period without a permit—making this a legal, compliant fallback for those with nowhere else to go.
🧑🌾 A Growing Community of Landowners Who Aren’t Rich—Just Organized
This land-share model redistributes access to land, putting it in the hands of everyday people instead of corporations or hedge funds.
Any excess funds support Unity Harbour’s broader mission:
- Building low-cost, inclusive campgrounds
- Offering emergency housing and mutual aid
- Creating infrastructure for housing justice — not speculation
